New research indicates the human brain isn't a single organ, but rather two distinct nervous systems that evolved independently over hundreds of millions of years. This challenges a long-held developmental model and has significant implications for biotech and pharma, as it explains why generating hindbrain neurons in the lab has been so difficult. The findings open new avenues for studying and potentially treating devastating diseases like spinal muscular atrophy and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and could even inform research into obesity treatments.
